You have to notify the credit reporting agency (eg. Experian, called a CRA) that you want it removed, in writing. They will want you to identify that you are the person requesting the change, by showing them you know things about yourself that others wouldn't know. You can only remove current items if you can prove they are incorrect or false with documentation or a court order. The agencies MUST tell you if and why something lowered your credit, or if someone rejected you, and why. Equifax, TransUnion and Experian are the 3 major CRA's, and you'll have to contact ALL THREE in WRITING to have your complete report changed. Here is their contact info:

To remove old debt from your credit report, you can start by checking the statute of limitations on the debt in your state. If the debt is past this limit, you can dispute it with the credit bureaus as "time-barred" and request its removal. You can also negotiate with the creditor to settle the debt or pay it off in exchange for them removing it from your report. Additionally, you can work with a credit repair agency to help you navigate the process.
